Special Cable Dispatch to THE EVENING STAR
LONDON, May 10.-A piece OF news reaches me
this morning OF most extraordinary and unparal-
leled description. AT first sight IL appears as
founding TO the extent OF incredibility but have
every reason to believe 1t we'll founded Indeed IL
rests on no so-called authority or any kind, but
upon plain statement OF certain facts. At the
banquet to Goschen Saturday night Lord Sails
bury declared that the time must soon come for
the governors OF England. by some short, sharp
expression OF their will, to put an end TO state OF
thlngs which makes them ridiculous" These words
were noticed at the time, but no one was then In
position TO guess at their Significance The facts
learn this morning, Indicate that this ..short.
sharp" method Is 10 consist, II circumstances
favor, in
THE WHOLESALE ARREST OF THE IRISH PARIIAxEN-
TARY PATTY.
Inc following are the facts: Col. Lodge, the gov
erner OF Millbank Prison, the largest and most
modern OF her majesty's prisons In London, was
summoned to London by the commissioners OF
prisons Dy telegraph at a moments notice. He
ooeyed. Since his arrival the wardens have re-
celved and executed orders to prepare for the i'm
mediate occupation OF the sixty rooms for first
class miSdemeanantS-that is, a whole wing OF
the prison. For several days furniture wagons
have been busy bringing beds mattresses, fire
places, and the common furniture which is allowed
rally arises why sixty? The recollection that the
clock tower Of Westminster Is the usual place OF
confinement for parliamentary Offenders. and has
accommodation for ten persons, helps TO answer
the question. Ten and sixty make up seventy,
which is not far of the total OF the whole working
force OF the Parnelllte party In London. There
has been no increase OF prisoners al Millbank and
there have never been any number approaching
sixty frst-class misdemeanants in the whole
United Kingdom at the same time. Three or four
Is generally the total The governor OF Holloway
goal informed me himself not long ago of the first
class mtsdemeanants from all parts OF England
sent TO him. 1t Is Therefore, impossible not to be-
leve that these facts indicate the expectation OF
the government, that the bitter obstruction as the
committee stage Of the crimes bill approaches the
end, Will give them an opportunity, IL not force
upon them the necessity OF striking the big blow
they positively contemplate In the arrest OF the
whole Irish party. That the facts are as have
stated them know; the inference OF course open
to doubt. express ii, therefore, with natural re-

itself and competitors, and which was made 10

two charges Will be filed against the traffic mana.

He Believed i'm Dynamite.

AN FRESHMAN ARRESTED IN CHICAGO FOR DISTURB
ING THE ANTI-COERCION MEETING.
HCHICAGO May I0-There was a sensational incl
dent the ant1-cOercfOn meeting at battery last
night. A few minutes before O'Clock man was
seen pushing his way toward the platform. He
was busily engaged in distributing naming red
circular. Word went round that the man was an
intruder and one OF the committee or arrangements
was sent to know his business there and how he
came to be disturbing the meeting: One glance at
the circular settled it, and the peder OF red paper
was incOntinently hustled toward the door. He
resisted and fought like bull dog. Two or three
stalwart policemen were called. and the. intruder
was dragged outside. His pockets were literally
stuffed with circulars and as the Officers shook
him into submission a shower OF red handbills
fell from every fold in his clothes These circulars
read follows: "By frshmen, Ireland viii be free
no home rule; total separation, nothing else; dyn-
amite the indigestible pill for John Bull; united
resolutions. l. c. r."
No one knew what the last three letters repre-
sented, and the dynamiter was asked TO explain.
He would not O1er an explanation, and the
patrol took him to the armory: To reporter he
said his name was william E Fitzpatrick, and
that he was painter by trade. "Yes, I'm dyna-
inter-" said be, sand I've been Fenian all my
nfe believe In dynamite as the only power for
Ireland. Oh, won't England rejoice when IL reaches
that country that an Ir1Shman was locked up In
Chicago for preaching dynamite"

Special Cable Dispatch to THE EVENING STAR.
LONDON May 1O.-The opening OF the American
Exhibition yesterday was a great success. Some
10000 people, most Of wh0mfound seats attended,
chiefly on invitation to see Buffalo Bills "wild
West" Literally, everybody in London was pres
ent. I have never seen a more representative
audience. The Exhibition is yet In too backward
state to pronounce finally upon its merits but it
is certain to constitute the popular show OF the
season. The performance OF Buffalo Bits troupe
received loud applause. The riding OF the "buck-
ing" horses has been the theme OF general CONVEX
sation to-day. The Indians, OF course, attract
great attention.

A Story About the Marines.

A DENIAL THAT ANY OF THEM DESERTED RATHER
THAN DO HOMAGE TO TIE QUEEN.
Nothing is known at the Navy Department
about the report that six marines refused to pay
homage to queen Kapiolani and threw down
their arms, changed their clothes and
deserted on the day OF the queens
visit to the navy-yard. A STAR reporter met a
marine sergeant this afternoon who said that
nothing OF the kind occurred, but that the report
probably arose from the fact that eight marines
had overstayed their liberty on that day, as is
frequently the case. Two Of them have turned up
since, and the others he thought would straggle
